The Palestinians must realize that they are dealing with a very shameless people who will not hesitate to fabricate a story that would connect them to Palestine! They feel extremely humiliated if anybody mentions that they are European but they love the idea of being from the Middle East! It is just beyond strange! They happen to be the only people on the planet who like to fabricate the origin of their ancestors. The people of the Middle East did not even know the Ashkenazi because they never met because the Ashkenazi always lived thousands of miles away from the Middle East until 1882 when a bunch of white Europeans began to arrive in Palestine claiming to be the Hebrews. It is not only strange, it is beyond strange!
